Infinity Publishing

Infinity Publishing offers reasonably priced book creation services but with only a few extras. It has one level of service, which includes cover design, but like Golden Pillar, Infinity doesn't make e-books. The company doesn't use templates for cover design and will work with your suggestions, but it charges $40 per hour for special formatting and a $5-per-item scanning fee for images you provide.

The book we received from Infinity was simply done but looked attractive and professional. Authors receive royalties of 20 percent if the book is sold from Infinity's own Web site or 10 percent if sold from another site; that's a bit low. But for an extra $95, you can list a book with Ingram, a major wholesaler. This is certainly worth the money, since it provides a way for many booksellers to order the book. Infinity doesn't have copy-editing services.

You can choose from four marketing packages, beginning with the $125 service, which provides 2 free books, 50 postcards, 100 business cards, 25 bookmarks, and 2 books on marketing.
